Nearby metered street parking is also available, but the museum’s visitor guidance points drivers toward the adjacent garage for convenience (mocha.org). The Oakland Symphony venue information identifies a city parking lot on 16th between Clay and San Pablo (oaklandsymphony.org), giving drivers another named facility close to the Clay Street address. ## Busy Oakland City Center Streets Around the Museum The museum identifies metered street parking as an option near the entrance (mocha.org), so drivers using the curb need to account for the posted meter rules rather than treating the street as unrestricted parking. The Oakland Symphony lists the city parking lot on 16th between Clay and San Pablo as a nearby parking option (oaklandsymphony.org). Drivers attending a performance or program there can bring their parking token to the Sing-In for a discounted parking price, according to the venue information (oaklandsymphony.org). The named streets and token instruction are particularly relevant when nearby curb spaces are occupied. Show map of Oakland ## Parksy Spaces Within 222 Yards of the Clay Street Site Parksy lists two monthly options 170 yards from the site: a secure parking garage with 24/7 access for $219 a month and a monthly space at 524 16th St for $219 a month. These suit visitors, workers, or residents who need repeated access rather than a single short visit. Two covered spaces in the Oakland City Center Garage are 222 yards away and cost $18 a day. A separate Oakland Park N Fly space is 0.2 miles away at $10.95 a day. The garage listings offer the closest daily choices in the Parksy group, while the Park N Fly listing has the lower stated daily price. ## Oakland City Center and the 16th Street Lot Ace Parking Garage, also identified by the museum as Oakland City Center Parking, is right next to the entrance and is the principal named garage in the museum’s visitor directions (mocha.org). Its position makes it the clearest alternative to searching for a metered curb space along Clay Street. The Oakland Symphony names a city parking lot on 16th between Clay and San Pablo (oaklandsymphony.org). The same venue information says a parking token can be brought to the Sing-In for a discounted parking price (oaklandsymphony.org). ## Walking From 19th Street Oakland Station 19th Street Oakland is the nearest station, at 0.2 miles and a 5-minute walk from the site. The station provides a practical alternative for visitors who prefer to avoid downtown driving and curb searches. The address is 1625 Clay Street, and the attraction is 334 yards from Oakland center. From 19th Street Oakland, the short walk makes rail access especially useful during busy periods around Oakland City Center, when the adjacent garage and nearby streets may be handling several visitor groups at once.
